Default Re: PCV valve for my H six ?

Thank you friends. PeteVS, that's a sanitary installation! My cardiologist told me today he has done over 600 of these valve jobs and it seems to me he's quite confident mine should go well. On the side we have been exchanging info on freeing up his stuck '52 hudson commodore convertible's straight eight flathead. His uncle bought it new and now it's his. He's quite excited about it and he's been working on it in his garage on weekends. From the photos it's a bit shop worn, but certainly a beautiful car. Since I have a sioux valve grinder and 2 seat grinders, maybe I can repay him in kind. But thank God for medicare, because I have a feeling his type of valve job is more spendy than mine. Next two days I'm back in the cabinet shop and that gives me a good weekend to get this pcv thing back on track, and with luck get the real gas tank back in. Since I was on the mainland where auto parts stores are everywhere, I bought a pcv valve for a mopar 3.6 liter V-6 as it's much closer to the displacement of my 226.
